Chili pepper 'Boule De Turquie'

Some varieties may need to be supported with a cane as the fruit develops.

Plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Boule De Turquie is thought of as tender, so it is really important to ensure that the outside temperature is well above freezing before planting or moving outdoors. Boule De Turquie needs a loamy and sandy soil with a ph of 7.0 to 8.5 (neutral soil to weakly alkaline soil).

Look to ensure a distance 1.95 inches (5.0 cm) between seeds when sowing - bury at a depth of at least 0.2 inches (0.5 cm) deep. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 18°C / 64°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Boule De Turquie about 38 days before your last frost date.

Transplant out when all danger of frost has passed.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Boule De Turquie is a tender plant.

This variety tends to be ready for harvesting by late summer.
